Can you keep it from me?
All the things you said you couldn't
The things you said that you would never do
Are you really gonna leave?
If you knew all the things I'd done,
do you think you'd wipe the records clean?
Count me in or count me out
Cause my fears are adding up
The fear of falling down
If you only play the blues
cause it feels all that much better
Their tears are getting wetter with the tunes
Count me in or count me out
Cause my fears are adding up
The fear of falling down
All I want is to be an angel for you, Baby
I'll pick you up
and maybe we can fly
I'll be waiting on you
till my toes are turning black
and my lips are turning deep, deep blue
I'm blue
I'm blue
I'm blue for you

You know I love you
Doing my best keep you
Keep you safe and keep you sound
Know I love you
Doing my best hold you
Hold you up not hold you down
Down
Down
Ever honest
Ever true
I'm tired of this:
hurting you
coughing up my words that way
Tomorrow is another day
Another day
Another day
I want to spend another day
Another day
Another day
Tomorrow is another day
You know I love you
Doing my best keep you
Keep you safe and keep you sound
Know I love you
Doing my best hold you
Hold you up not hold you down

She's got a little boy and
it doesn't seem wrong
She's got a little girl and
it's right as can be yeah

Are you gonna give up on your dreams?
Are you gonna give up everything
for what you found in them?
Found all you need?.
Baby says 'You've got to make your mind up to it.'
Baby says 'You've gotta set the stage and do it.'
Pulling out the stops
Put it on the rocks for me
Holding

You can lose your keys
You can lose your money but please don't lose your faith in me
You can keep your doubts
your follow ups
your check outs
so long as you keep your eye on me
I will smoke
I will spin
I will blow down your biggest plan
but I won't walk out on you
You may scream
You may fight
I'm just holding tight
No I won't walk out on you

Sweet sorrow
You call me home
I'm in a place that feels my own
My spirit is free and my body is gone
My heavenly host is open arms
Discomfort no longer known
The pains of live have been forgone
In peaceful sleep my deeds are sung
by angels voices one by one

I've got plans
Mm hot damn they're good, Baby

I'm wondering
My mind is stirring like a leave
I'm caught off guard
It's my heart, It's my heart
A deep black abyss
All that matters is
It's you that I miss
All I can see is
You and me, you and me
It's only a memory
It's only a memory

I'm not the light but I'm a witness
Have no title but I'm in business with you
You can come around and tell me what to do
I have fire
I have a reason
More than my fair share of treasons
but you don't hold it against me
so I'm holding your mystery in my heart
Oh in my heart
You have a way to always keep me
You have a way
it's better than mine
I have no way of knowing so I'll just
take it in stride
Oh my
Oh my
You know me
You love me
I have just what my soul needs
Well
Ooh
in my heart

Run away
Find a place where you can be yourself
Nobody else gonna tell you what to do or say
What do you mean anyway?
Thought that counts
If its the thought that counts
then I'll keep
counting on
Come on
Don't you know it's true?
Here's to
looking at you

Little seed
Little seed
Wait for the wind
to carry you on
a whim
Started slow
You came up quick
A dandelion
In one swift pick you were held
You where held
by the one that set your free
The fair young heart that passed your way
By evening you were wilting
Little weed
Little weed
Come up again
The fields
they have no end
You got it right
You got it wrong
You grew up where you didn't belong

No Blame

Down
Down by water
Everyone looking for
their own peace of mind
Down
Down by water
Something deep
and different
calling me this time
calling me this time
Drink it up, my honey
Drink it in, my baby
Gonna sit back and stay
Ooh well ain't it funny?
Ooh you know it's pretty
I ain't got no blame
I got no blame

Only You
02:50
|
|||
|
Wish you'd been better from the start
but you can't go back
You left yourself a trail of broken hearts
All the love gone bad
You had it but she didn't want to wait
so she left on her train
You had it but you had to take your time
but time you couldn't make
Now only
only only only you can change your mind
Good man and a lover so it seems
so it seems
so it seems
Holding on to some reclusive dream
so it seems
so it seems
Only only only only you
Only only only only you
Only only only only you
Only only only only you
can change your mind

Show you now what I need
Honey,
I need you
I need you
You
I need you

She loves you like I wanna
She loves you like a summers day on a lake
A day with the bears on a mountainside
She loves you like a hummingbird
You're the nectar and she is the one that will sing
Sing of how sweet you are
I love you like a setting sun
I love you like the stars that are coming up
They're coming up
The moon can't hold me
The waves can't move me like you do
The leaves ain't only
the ones a falling for you, Dear
She's gold
She loves you like I'm gonna
She loves you like the winter
Cold in the morning
Tough on the skin
but soft at heart
She loves you like a mockingbird
perched and listening
but you are the one that is echoing all she's done
I love you like the rising tide
I love you like the rocks that won't move aside
Won't move aside
The moon can't hold me
The waves can't move me like you do
The leaves ain't only
the ones a falling for you, Dear
Silver and gold
Silver and gold

My lover's got left hands
Using em, stirring me up
He's a good
He's a big bad man
Got no need to cry 'love'
Cause he's huffing
puffing
Oo he's blowing me down
Down, down, down
You know
All this running is tiring me out
My darlin, he don't mind
Few and far in between
He's still got much to hide
and he ain't changing for me
Cause that nothin' it comes no charge
no charge
But you know
That waiting
Oh it's doing me harm
doing me harm
doing me harm
mmm mmm mmm mmm
ohhh
My lover's got grey hair
Worrying all the day long
Oo it seems like he don't care
But I know thats got to be wrong
Cause I want him and he wants me
We'll just have to wait
Wait and see
Singing
I been walking in my sleep
I been standing next to me
I been singing things I see
I been wondering what it means
I'm just wondering what it means
So we'll have to wait
Wait and see
My sweetheart's got grey hair
Worrying all the day long
Oo it seems like he don't care
I know thats got to be wrong
Cause I want him and he wants me but
All you know is what you see

Baby I love you
but you can't relate
I bet you're thinking the exact same thing as me
I'm pretty sure you mean well
I'm positive it hurts like hell
Anytime you feel alone
I'm on the other side of the telephone

Don't you know

I wouldn't doubt
you were reaching for
something else
someone else too

Mind like sky and
mood like weather
I'm working through it
Work together
I'm clicking heels and asking for a change
Moving forward
moving quick
I can't look back
it makes me sick
My teary eyes are my responsibility to dry
Oh Passion, I miss you
You know I could could kiss you
from toe to the top of your head
Who you are and
what you know
Life hurts you when you don't let yourself grow
Oh baby, let yourself grow
Let it rise and
let it pass
Oh
Don't hold on to what don't last
I'm learning that detachment doesn't mean you don't feel
Oh Passion, I miss you
You know I could could kiss you
from toe to the top of your head
Oh Love, to be near you
and more just to hear you

Spirit like butterfly
Soul like breeze
I'm floating
over
my weak knees
I'm popping wheels and
jumping 10ft flames
Well I don't know what I'll get into
I can't be sure what I'm meant to
But you know if I'm good I'll be
half
way
to it
Oh Passion, I miss you
You know I could could kiss you
from toe to the top of your head

Whole Again

You know it's so hard to be without you
Feels like my soul is torn in two
I'm thinking of you daily
I'm thinking of you nightly too
Won't you come down and make me whole again
Won't you come down and set me free
I'm begging of you baby
I'm down on my knees
You know it can't be long
Sing together in a song
The road is going to be paved for you and me
Well, at least in my dreams
You know it's so hard to be without you
Feels like my mind can't get no rest
I'm praying and I'm hoping that I can give you my best
Won't you come down and make me whole again
Won't you come down and set me free
I'm begging of you baby
I'm down on my knees
I'm down on my knees
